in the majority of books that have been produced on the region, especially from science, actually create an exceptional situation when it comes to the middle east or is, or the arab region specifically. i do not think it as a secretary and situation. i do think however when you create provisions -- divisions for mechanisms of loyalty as did the regime by narrowing the circle of leadership at the top or as you actually use minority sectarianism to express our, you are going to increase sectarianism. when you massacre your people by the thousands, you are going to put a stamp that is very difficult to remove, whether or not the regime is actually out there just to protect us, which it is not. the number of christians in syria and other minorities that support not necessarily the regime, but the status quo -- and sometimes they do support the regime. and i am have syrian come and i know my family in syria is completely split on the question of the regime and the uprising, so it does play our role, but the role is very much a function of policies and overlap between between variables. let's
